Concerning the anchoring of acetylcholinesterase in biomembranes.

Highly purified acetylcholinesterases from various sources do not contain hydroxyproline and hydroxylysine, indicating the absence of a collagenlike 'tail'. The enzymes examined are therefore bound to the membrane in a different way compared with acetylcholinesterase isolated from electric organ.

Sex-dependent action of prenatal fractionated X-irradiation in the mouse. Biochemical findings.

X-irradiation of pregnant NMRI-mice on gestational days 11-13 with 3 x 10.5 Gy increased postnatal mortality of the female offspring only. Weights, protein content and acetylcholinesterase, as well as Na,K-ATPase activities in the brains of all treated offspring, were changed. There were, however, no differences between females and males with respect to these parameters.
